AM: 1mi. WU, Bump & Run 5k - beautiful weather, hilly course. Started off 4th and finished in 4th - satisfied with the run with the amount of hills, and soreness in the legs and left knee. 5:45 first mile didn't turn in to as much of a melt down for the next 2 mi. as it has in the past, though pushing at the end going downhill really didn't feel good on the left knee :( 5:44, 5:59, 5:56, 30.9 1.78 mi. CD with the guys who usually beat me (and did again today) - spent the run learning about swimming from one of the guys who has become somewhat of a tri expert in the area. (Don't kick so much! :))
AM: 6mi. w/ 4.5 MP (effort) -- 44:21 - it was difficult to maintain under 7 minutes on this run - ran this about 10 minutes after 5k cooldown, so the legs didn't want to get out of first gear? On a side note, my weight has really started to approach my target for this fall (and stay there), so that's great news!
Made blueberry and PB/banana pancakes and feasted and watched Dexter for most of the rest of the day. :)
PM: 2.81 junk miles to round out 60 mile week. My legs are hurting...
